Flower Petal Garden[Poem]



 This is a photo I took yesterday of a neighbors flowers by their mailbox :]

This mornings poem is a form poem. It's called a rictameter which is a form with the syllable pattern of 2-4-6-8-10-8-6-4-2. In this poem I used three rictameters. Enjoy :]
 

Flower
my given name
shows multiple faces
grown through rough yet serene places
warmed by sunlit rays of honeysuckle.
Mirror image leaves blow freely
creating music notes
inside my soul.
Flower

Petal
soft like metal.
Summertime rhythm springs
feeling like a winter lily
taking me to a far away kingdom.
Breathing in every unique smell
making new memories
inside my mind.
Petal

Garden
colorful times
playing like a child.
Laughter lingered in my small lungs
universal landmarks outline my cells
wishing I could stay together.
Will you stay forever
inside my heart?
Garden
